Initial Start-Up - Reely RE-5631027 Mode D'emploi

Initial start-up

When all available LEDs from the delivered items are connected and maximum brightness is use, the re-
ceiver power supply will be loaded with a current of approx. 800 mA. If the power supply of the LED system
comes from a BEC of the speed controller, the load capacity of the BEC should be at least 3 A continuous
current. Otherwise, because of fluctuating voltage due to the additional power requirement of the steering
servo during driving, interference in the receiving system may occur.
The BEC of the speed controller or receiver power supply (receiver battery) may not have an
output voltage of more than 6 V/DC under any circumstances. Otherwise, the electronics of the
LED system and/or the LEDs will be destroyed. The warranty will be void!
First, switch on the transmitter and then the receiver. After switching on the receiving system, the LED
system and thus also the LEDs connected to it are powered by the receiver power supply. The LED system
will now be calibrating. This is indicated by the LEDs flashing at connection BR1 (red LEDs) and only takes
a few seconds. Once the LEDs turn off, the LED system is ready for use.
The function of the LED connections for indicators as well as the brake and reverse lights always
works, regardless of the LEDs of other LED connections (e.g. white LEDs as driving light on
AUX1).
If you turn the steering to the left on the transmitter, the LEDs on connector L will flash until the control signal
returns to neutral. If you steer to the right, the LEDs on connector R will flash.
If you drive forward and brake (control lever at the transmitter direction "reverse"), the LEDs at output BR1
will light up and represent the brake light. If you now bring the control lever forward/back to the neutral
position, the brake light goes out. If you reverse, the white LEDs on the "REV" connection will light up and
represent the reverse lights.
Switching channel 3 (CH3) on the transmitter allows you to switch the hazard warning lights on and off both
while stationary and while driving. The normal indicator function will not work.
Press the switch for channel 4 (CH4) on the transmitter. After approx. one second the following light signals
are turned on depending on the switching operation:
• Stage 1: This switches the LEDs of ports BR1 (as a low-level backlight function) as well as ROF, AUX1
and AUX2. The outputs ROF, AUX1 and AUX2 can be used eg as headlights. AUX1 has a lower brightness
compared to AUX2.
• Stage 2: In addition to the LED connections from Stage 1, this switches on the LEDs of connections FR1
and FR2. FR1 has a lower brightness compared to FR2.
• Stage 3: The connection FOG is also switched on for all already activated LED connections.
• Stage 4: If you press the CH4 switch on the transmitter once more, the connections BR1 (only the backlight
function), ROF, AUX1, AUX2, FR1, FR2 and FOG are switched off once more.
Programming the LED system
a) General information
The LED system can be individually programmed in many positions. The SET button on the servo connection
module is used for programming. All individual programming steps are indicated by the (red) LEDs of con-
nection BR1. The number of flashes represents one programming step. The different programming levels are
displayed in endless loops. Selecting the individual programme points and saving the set values are always
the same in the procedure.
The factory settings of all programme items are highlighted in gray in the tables below. Com-
pletely resetting the system to the factory settings can be done in the first programming level.
More information is found in Section 7).
b) Programming Rechargeable Battery Type
The programming procedure shown here is the same in all other menu items except for the
menu item "Basic Set-up". The action shown here can therefore be regarded as a program-
ming example. Only the number of flashes and their meanings change with other menu items.
Please also note the tables in Sections c) and d). The different programming of "Basic set-up" is
explained in Section e).
The menu item "Set battery type" is factory programmed to "LiPo 2S". If you want to programme a voltage
monitor with undervoltage detection for the drive battery, it is essential to specify the type of battery you are
actually using. For voltage monitoring, connect the cable with balancer connection to the servo connection
module and the balancer connection of the drive battery to this cable.
If the correct battery type is not programmed, the measurement results will be incorrect and
the warning will be too early or too late. If the warning is too late, the battery may already be
discharged too much and be damaged.
To programme, proceed as follows:
• Switch on the transmitter.
• Press and hold the SET button on the servo connection module for 2 seconds.
• Switch on the receiver (while still pressing the SET button). The LEDs on output BR1 will light up.
• If the LEDs stop flashing after a few seconds, you are in programming mode. Now release the SET button.
The following main menu items are now available for selection and are displayed in an endless loop:
Main menu Set the battery Undervoltage
item type detection

For the next programming step, press the SET button once more for about one second, if the LEDs for the
desired submenu (set battery type, undervoltage detection, etc.) have flashed accordingly.
Example: In the menu item "Set battery type" you want to define the type of drive battery used.
To do this, proceed as follows:
• Wait until the LEDs have flashed once (= set battery type).
• Press and hold the SET button for approx. one second. The LEDs will light up for approx. one second
and then go out.
• Now release the SET button. You are now in the next programming level. The four programming options
are also shown here with the LEDs flashing in an endless loop, see the following table:

• Programming the battery type used in your model. For a LiFe battery with two cells, you must press the
SET button for approx. one second after the LED has flashed three times. Once the LEDs goes out,
release the SET button. The battery type is now stored.
• You are now back in the main menu (set battery type, undervoltage detection, etc.) and can choose among
other main menu items and do more programming.
If you do not want to carry out further programming, simply switch off the power supply of the receiver. Your
programming will be active once you switch on the receiver power supply again.
c) Programming the undervoltage threshold
If you want to carry out undervoltage monitoring of your drive battery, you can define the warning threshold
via the second main menu "Undervoltage detection". The "Medium" setting is preset for a 2S LiPo battery
as a factory setting. In this case, the LED system would report an undervoltage once the voltage of the drive
battery drops below 6.8 V.
Proceed to programming in the same way as described in Section b).
Function
Undervoltage detection
The following table shows the corresponding voltage values for undervoltage detection:
Low
Medium
High
Own threshold
If you select "Own Threshold", the LED system saves the voltage measured at the time of programming on
the battery. This allows you to programme an individual "undervoltage threshold" that is different from the
voltage values shown in the table (marked as "xx V" in the bottom line).
Example: If the connected two-cell LiPo drive battery has a voltage of 6.0 V, it will be read out
during programming and saved as a separate threshold value.
Once the programmed undervoltage threshold has been reached during subsequent operation, all LEDs
connected to the LED connection module will flash simultaneously. The actual functions of the LEDs (turn
signal function, driving light, etc.) as well as the switching functions for this purpose won't work at this time. If
the buzzer from the delivered items is plugged into the "AUX2" connector and this connection is programmed
accordingly (see following chapter), the undervoltage is also signalled acoustically.
d) Programming channel functions
In the submenu shown below in the table, you have the option to change the functions of individual channels
of the remote control (CH1 - CH4).
The differences are explained below:
CH1 (L+R):
With "Normal off" the flashing orange LEDs will only blink when operating the steering. With "Normal on" all
orange LEDs will light up at the same time. When operating the steering, the LEDs that are normally con-
trolled by the steering will flash and the LEDs on the opposite side will be off. Once the steering is returned
to the neutral position, all the orange LEDs will light up at the same time.
CH2 (brake):
In "night mode", the LEDs connected to connector BR1 only light up when the light is switched off (see "CH4"
in this chapter) during braking. If the light is switched on via "CH4", the "brake light LEDs" will light up dimmed
thus representing the tail light. During braking, these LEDs shine brighter.
When selecting the "day mode", the LEDs on port BR1 will be off while driving forward, but will light up during
normal during braking. When reversing and standing still, these LEDs will be dimmed. When driving forward
again, the LEDs will go out.
CH3 (function):
By pressing the CH3 switch on the transmitter, you can switch the following functions or LEDs on and off
depending on the programming.
• "Hazard warning lights on/off": Switching the hazard warning system on and off.
• "FR1 + FR2 on/off": Switch LEDs on and off at the corresponding identical connections. The hazard warn-
ing lights will now function as programmed under "Automatic hazard warning start time" (see Section e
below).
• "ROF on/off": Switch LEDs on and off at the corresponding identical connection. The hazard warning lights
will now function as programmed under "Automatic hazard warning start time" (see next chapter).
• "FOG on/off": Switch LEDs on and off at the corresponding identical connection. The hazard warning
lights will now function as programmed under "Automatic hazard warning start time" (see next chapter).

CH4 (FR2):
settings
Here you can programme the brightness of the LEDs on the FR2 output in three levels (low/medium/high).
5x
CH4 (AUX2):
Here you can programme the brightness of the LEDs on the AUX2 output in three levels (low/medium/
high). For programming the Buzzer, the supplied buzzer instead of the LEDs must be plugged into the AUX2
output. If the buzzer is plugged in and the programmed undervoltage is detected, the undervoltage is also
signalled acoustically.
CH4 (ROF):
Here you can programme the brightness of the LEDs on the ROF output in three levels (low/medium/high).
